Many diet fads aren’t backed by good science, and you’re left feeling hungry and unsatisfied.
The high-fat, low-carb keto diet is a proven way to help you lose weight -- and keep it off.
When you load up on the right kinds of fat and limit carbs, you force your body to burn fat rather than glucose (aka sugar) for fuel. 
Bulletproof recommends a cyclical keto diet -- when you go in and out of ketosis on a weekly basis, which is better for long-term success. 
Restricting calories is another outdated recommendation that can actually cause you to put on weight. 
To lose weight without restricting calories, you should fast. Science shows you can lose a lot of weight with intermittent fasting. 
Fasting gets you into ketosis quicker -- it drains your glucose reserves, causing your body to reach into its fat stores for energy.
